Punta Sal is a coastal village located along the Pacific Ocean in the region of Tumbes, northern Peru.[1] Due to its more equatorial location, the current of El Niño warms the surrounding sea and the local climate.[1] Punta Sal's ample beaches, with whitish sands and blue warm waters have made this area a popular beach resort.[1]
